Tough Tables
The seats are still filling in with players, but we recognize about 2-3 players at the average table. Already, there are a couple that stick out as particularly tough places to try and amass a chip stack.
Table 6 holds Constant Rijkenberg (Seat 1), Brian Powell (3), Nick Mitchell (7), and Steven Chidwick (8). Powell is fresh off his semifinal run in Event #5 yesterday.
And Table 12 is the murderers' row. The six seat is empty right now, but the rest of Seats 5-9 are occupied by Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier, Graeme "Kiwi G" Putt, Jonathan Duhamel, and James Akenhead -- in that order. Yikes.
This blogger is spending most of his time near Table 4, though, the table that's not big enough for both Guillaume Darcourt and Victor Ramdin. Those two certainly aren't afraid to mix it up, and we wouldn't be surprised to see some big pots between them early on.
